The Workout: 10 Muscle-Building Leg Moves

Building strong muscles in your legs is a crucial part of your fitness routine. Our legs encompass the largest muscles in our body (the quads, hamstrings and glutes). Making them stronger revs up your metabolism, burns more calories and improves your mobility and balance. A well-trained lower body improves performance in a variety of sports including cycling or running and keeps your core tight. And don’t forget…strong muscles equal less injuries.

Equipment needed:

• 1 kettlebell (15-25 lbs.)
• 1 set of dumbbells (10-20 lbs.)
• Water

*Consult your physician before beginning any workout routine.
